How are VSO volunteers selected?
Below is a summary of the application and selection process: The VSO application form: Applicants must complete the VSO application form. You can download the form as a Word document and email the completed form to vsojitolee@vsojitolee.org. Alternatively you can post a completed application form to our office in Nairobi or Kampala. VSO Jitolee volunteer programme advisers (VPA) assess all applications based on the qualifications and experience indicated in the submitted VSO application forms. Therefore, the more comprehensive and accurate your data is in your application, the better. Preliminary interview: If the application is successful, the applicant will be contacted to attend a preliminary interview, which takes about 20 to 30 minutes. The purpose of the interview is to verify that the applicant’s personal and professional data is as indicated in the application and to ask for additional information if necessary. It is also a chance for applicants to ask questions about VSO. Afte
